Set away from the hustle and bustle, yet within easy reach of the sights, this apartment in Venice is a splendid place to stay. We love the terrace, tucked between rustic walls and pretty plants – it’s a serene spot for morning coffee or pre-dinner drinks. And inside is just as charming, with timber beams and exposed brickwork adding character to this comfortable home (which also has a sofa bed that sleeps two). There’s a smartly styled kitchen too, but with a whole city of excellent eateries to discover, it will be hard to resist sampling the local cuisine.

About Castello
Castello represents a cluster of islands at the eastern edge of Venice’s centre. It’s a quieter side of Venice, without too many tourists. All this changes, however, during the Biennale.
